Empirical evidence of habits and patterns in public transport use

Demand for public transport systems is determined by high-level strategic decisions (home and work location choices), habits (preferred routes and modes) and real-time response more...

Discontinuous Discrete Methods for Solving the Multi-phase Hydro-mechanical Behaviour of Partially-saturated Soils

The goal of the project is to develop robust finite-element type solvers of the equations describing the multi-phase hydro-mechanical behaviour of partially saturated soils, hence a more...

Traffic Programming - Algorithms for Cooperative Behaviour among Unconnected AVs

Current AV algorithms aim to safely manoeuvre a vehicle through traffic without involving humans. These algorithms do not consider implications on the efficiency of traffic as a who more...
